    I like to say, “Stastically you’re much more likely to die in a car accident on the way to the beach than be attacked by a shark once there.”

    So people are less afraid of sharks and more afraid of each other, like it should be.

        We wouldn’t get far before the shark would asphyxiate though, I think it’s a bad replacement for cars

      “Who here plans on driving their car today? Show of hands!” … “I recommend getting to know these people, because you are far more likely to die in an car accident caused by a stranger than by someone you know. But also don’t upset them, as you are far more likely to be murdered by someone you know rather than a stranger.”

      “Mr Tourguide, aren’t you supposed to talk about sharks?”
